Virtual Disability Services Conference '22
Registration is open for the Disability Services Conference: All Access, All The Time scheduled for Nov. 7-11, 2022. This free, virtual event is hosted by University of Alaska Disability Support Offices and Human Resources Accessibility Team.
It's essential for all learners to have equal access to college. To reduce barriers for students who experience a disability, the Disability Services offices at University of Alaska Anchorage, University of Alaska Fairbanks and University of Alaska Southeast are continuously collaborating to streamline processes, share information, and offer feedback. Key partners in these efforts include dedicated faculty and staff who help make these accommodations a reality.
All UA staff and faculty members are cordially invited to join UA Disability Support Offices and the HR Accessibility Team for a week of free virtual training sessions covering a variety of accommodation and accessibility topics and tips; Q&A engagement; an Office for Civil Rights/Americans with Disabilities Act 2022 overview from the legal team at the Office for Civil Rights; keynote addresses presented by two national motivational speakers in our field, and so much more!
Nov. 7-11, 2022 | Two sessions per day | Attendance is free
